It is an exhaustive and instructive collection of records of our city, which I am proud of sharing with you today. I appreciate that each record comes with a synopsis in English, which makes it easier for me to understand the meaning, if not always the actual essence of the achievement. Of course, one could flip through the book and list them one by one, but I am reporting only the most significant ones... allow me to use my own criteria for "significant". By the way, I am reproducing the titles word for word:-The Club of the Cheerful and Sharp-Witted with Most Titles in the World. Someone in that bunch of cheerful people is not joking about keeping track of titles. I wonder how susceptible they would be if another club of sharp -witted were to contest the validity of this record.
-The Most Titled Sportsman in Russia Among Helicopter Sport Masters. His titles include golden medals at championship of Siberia, Russia, USSR.
-The Owner of the Biggest In Russia Collection of Candies and Chocolate wrappings and Alcohol Drinks Labels. He owns more than 13,000 candy wrappings, 1,000 chocolate bar wrappings and more than 10,000 beers, wine and cognac labels. Wanna meet the champion? Look for the drunk guy with really bad teeth.
-The Only Museum of Historical Relations between Saint Petersburg and Novosibirsk. I wonder why Saint Petersburg is not interested in hosting a similar museum.
-The Longest Compass Needle in Russia. For this one, you will have to use the same sense of imagination as the one required for making out animals in the clouds: it turns out that the central street of Novosibirsk goes North / South over 6,5 km. Thanks to the editors for providing this high level illustration for our understanding.
-The first Winner of All-Russia Competition between Children's Institutions of Extended Education. This one has to be put in perspective with another achievement reported separately: The Only School of Extended Education in Russia that Makes Programs for Children.-The Greatest number of Printed Publications and their Copies about Novosibirsk. No reason to be shy about that one.
